Frequently asked questions
Short, direct answers to what homeowners and property managers ask us most.
How much does lawn care cost with TurfPros?
- Pricing depends on the square footage of turf, your grass type and which services you want. Most residential lawns in Statesboro, Savannah and Effingham County fall into a predictable range once we measure. We give you the number before any work starts, and there is no charge for the estimate. [PLACEHOLDER: add starting price range if you want it published.]
What areas do you serve?
- Statesboro, Savannah, Claxton, Pooler, Guyton, Richmond Hill and Effingham County, plus the surrounding Southeast Georgia communities. If you are just outside those areas, call 912-871-8873 — we may already run a route near you.
Do I have to sign a long-term contract?
- No. Our programs run on a seasonal schedule because that is what produces results, but you are not locked into a multi-year agreement. [PLACEHOLDER: confirm your exact cancellation terms.]
How long until my lawn looks better?
- Most lawns show visible color improvement within two to three weeks of the first feeding. Thickening up and crowding out weeds takes a full season, because turf density is built round by round. A lawn that is badly thinned or compacted usually needs aeration plus a full year of the program.
Do I need to be home for service?
- No. We only need access to the yard, so gates should be unlocked and pets brought inside. We leave notes after each visit letting you know what was applied and anything we noticed.
Is it safe for kids and pets?
- Products are applied by licensed applicators at label rates. The standard guidance is to keep children and pets off treated areas until liquid applications have dried — usually one to two hours. We will tell you the re-entry time for anything we apply that day.
When should pre-emergent be applied in Southeast Georgia?
- Spring pre-emergent goes down before soil temperature holds near 55 degrees, which is typically late February into March here and earlier closer to the coast. Fall pre-emergent goes down as soil temperatures drop through the fall to stop Poa annua and winter weeds.
What grass types do you treat?
- Bermuda, Zoysia, Centipede and St. Augustine — the warm-season grasses that make up nearly every lawn in this part of Georgia. Programs are adjusted by grass type, because centipede in particular is easy to damage with the wrong product or too much nitrogen.
What happens if weeds come back between visits?
- Call us. Service calls between scheduled rounds are included for program customers. Weeds pushing through between applications is normal in a wet Georgia summer, and we would rather come back out than have you wait for the next round.
Are you licensed and insured?
- Yes. TurfPros is licensed for commercial pesticide application in Georgia and carries liability insurance. License: [PLACEHOLDER: Georgia pest control license #]. Insurance: [PLACEHOLDER: carrier and policy #].
